    Re: new gpu

    Is it always Q2 for new GPUs? Or is that just my imagination?

    I'm not 100% sure myself, but going by wikipedia the 6900 launched December 15th 2010 and it was the 6990 that launched in Q2 of 2011 on March 8th, which is probably why I was thinking of Q2 as I got my 6990 at around the launch date (early April IIRC) and for the 7970 this launched January 9th 2012 according to Anandtech. Wikipedia also shows the GTX580 as having launched on November 9th 2010 and the GTX680 had a launch date in late March 2012 again, according to Anandtech. So it looks like both AMD/ATI and nVidia aim to hit the shelves with new product in either the last of the first quarter of the year.

    So I guess by Q2 we should have seen new releases from both camps.
